In today’s fast-changing educational landscape, higher education institutions in India face the constant challenge of driving enrollment growth. The issue isn’t a lack of student interest but rather the complexity of managing inquiries, applications, and follow-ups across fragmented systems. This leads to missed opportunities and inefficiencies that directly affect your institution’s bottom line.
So, what’s the solution? The answer lies in a more strategic approach—one that aligns enrollment processes streamlines student communication, and centralizes operations. Enter Meritto’s Higher Education CRM—a platform built specifically to empower decision-makers and enrollment teams with tools that transform the entire student journey.
Managing Student Inquiries Seamlessly with a CRM in Higher Education
Admissions teams are constantly dealing with scattered student inquiries that require timely responses. Without a centralized system, managing these leads becomes a tedious process that often leads to delayed follow-ups and missed opportunities. Meritto’s CRM in higher education helps solve this by centralizing all inquiries into a single platform.
Imagine a day where all prospective students are responded to within minutes, not days. With Meritto, this isn’t just possible—it’s the new normal.
- Lead Centralization: Collect and manage all student inquiries from various sources—whether they come through your website, social media, or events—in one place.
- Automated Follow-Ups: Engage with potential students through personalized communication across email, WhatsApp, and SMS, ensuring no lead slips through the cracks.
By organizing your inquiries into one unified platform, your team spends less time hunting for information and more time building meaningful connections with students.
Simplifying Applications and Fee Management
The student application process can often feel overwhelming for both students and staff. Traditional manual processes cause delays and create friction. Meritto’s higher education CRM simplifies this by automating every step of the student’s journey, making it easier for admissions teams to process applications and manage fees efficiently.
- Unified Student Platform: Students can apply, submit documents, and pay fees—all within the same portal.
- Integrated Payment Stack: Manage all fee payments in real-time, reducing administrative load and providing students with a hassle-free experience.
Picture this: a prospective student applies through your portal, uploads all required documents, and pays their fees—all in a smooth, automated flow that your admissions team tracks effortlessly.
Boosting Counselor Productivity and Performance
Counselors often face the challenge of juggling multiple student profiles while keeping track of where each student is in the enrollment process. Meritto’s higher education CRM empowers counselors with real-time data and automation tools that allow them to focus on meaningful student interactions, rather than manual tasks.
- Counselor Management: Automatically assign student leads to counselors based on custom rules, such as location or course interest.
- Mobile App: Your team can manage inquiries and admissions on the go, ensuring no student is left behind.
Meritto’s tools allow counselors to be proactive and personalized in their approach, enhancing the student experience and increasing conversion rates.
Enhancing Marketing Campaigns with Data-Driven Insights
Marketing plays a critical role in driving inquiries and attracting prospective students. But without real-time insights, knowing which campaigns are working becomes a guessing game. Meritto’s higher education CRM takes the guesswork out by providing in-depth analytics that allows you to track and optimize your marketing efforts.
- Real-Time Campaign Tracking: Know exactly which channels are driving the most inquiries and adjust your strategy accordingly.
- Lead Attribution: Understand where your students are coming from and which touchpoints are the most effective.
With these insights, your marketing team can make data-driven decisions that improve engagement and optimize your budget.
Supporting the Entire Post-Enrollment Journey
The benefits of Meritto’s CRM go beyond initial enrollments. Once a student is accepted, the system ensures a smooth post-enrollment process, from tracking payments to managing document verification and scheduling interviews. It’s a full-circle solution that improves the entire student lifecycle.
- Post-Application Automation: Automate tasks like interview scheduling, merit list generation, and offer letter management.
